    People mentioning how long they've been here made me lookup my profile. I thought it was about 10, but it's actually approaching 17 years. Doesn't time fly...

      I thought "tweet(ing)" was juvenile from day one, and it has never crossed my lips.

      I kinda liked "tweet" because it made light of the whole social media scene. I say tweet without shame.

        If I hear someone use "X" as an object, verb or subject, I will tell them to "X" themselves.

              At least birds 'tweet' to interact with the world, so it has a parallel. Nothing in the world I know of 'X's, except as a metaphor for closing or death (or a stupid shortcut for Xmas :rolleyes: ). I take that back - maybe 'X' is a good renaming after all! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

              The "X" is "Xmas" is the Greek letter chi. "Christ" in Greek is "Χριστός."
